What Is JobsPlus?
JobsPlus is a programme that helps people find work that suits them. It is a mix of:
Support from friendly employment coaches.
Help with money worries, wellbeing and work skills.
Advice that is personal to you and your life.
JobsPlus is run in your local community so you don’t have to travel far. It is designed to be easy to join, simple to understand and helpful straight away.
